With just over four weeks to go until remembrance Sunday, it is tragic to watch our political leaders and that of Pakistan, remain silent, in response to our request for their intervention with Prime Minister Shariff, to secure the future of HMS Ambuscade. Who will remember them?
An appeal for the support of the Prime Ministers of the UK & Pakistan has been delivered, hoping that common sense recognises the dangers to shipping in the Gulf region which has severely restricted transit.

We are delighted to be invited to speak at the upcoming 'MAST' conferance event in Glasgow.
HMS Ambuscade has been donated by the Pakistan Navy, we only have 24 days to save her!
We need an ocean going tug!
This is the likely fate of HMS Ambuscade, unless we can save her and create a fitting Falklands Task Force Museum. This was her sister ship HMS Active, sunk in Pakistan.

Happy #FalklandsDay, the day when we celebrate the first recorded sighting of the Falkland Islands, in 1592, by English navigator, Captain John Davis, aboard his ship, The Desire.
I hope everyone celebrating in the Islands and across the globe has an wonderful day! 🇫🇰
The Scotsman article carries the news of the pressure that wars in the Gulf are bringing to other areas.
With all this recent talk of the Falklands War and arguments with Argentina supporters, here is a veterans poem made into a song, in support of getting HMS Ambuscade out of Karachi! clydenaval.org/music/

With all this talk of the Falklands War and commemorating it please back a Falklands War Memorial project on the Clyde, where so many ships of the Taskforce were built. This would centre around saving the last ship from the Taskforce - HMS Ambuscade (kindly donated by Pakistan). See @FallsofClydeSco; clydenaval.org/support-us/ and bbc.co.uk/news/articles/cmmp…
We are calling on serving servicemen and women, join our mission and create a Falklands Memorial for those who did not return. This will be a lasting tribute to all that served, and those from HMS Ardent, Antelope, Coventry, Sheffield, Atlantic Conveyor, Sir Galahad, Foxtrot 4.
Clyde Naval Heritage are pleased to confirm, that we have commissioned Fareham Marine Offshore Consultants, to go to Karachi and carry out a specific ship survey, to assess the condition of HMS Ambuscade.
Our appreciation goes to Derek Ross and Dave Buoy's for their support.

Today pause and remember the 22 brave Royal Navy sailors still on patrol in San Carlos water. Lost 44 years ago during Op Corporate to reclaim @falklands_gov and never forget those that survived and live with the memories every day #HMSARDENT #OpCorporate #Falklands
